In addition to masterworks by Mozart and Beethoven, and a recent favorite by American Jessie Montgomery, this concert also features the world premier of Mason Bates’ Bound Away, commissioned by the Richmond Symphony for the Menuhin Competition, and will also be performed later in the Competition by the Junior finalists.
